Chapter 27: Chapter 27 - 27 27 The game of the rich I cant afford to

Chapter 27: Chapter 27: The game of the rich, I can’t afford to play Chapter 27: Chapter 27: The game of the rich, I can’t afford to play Suddenly, an ear-piercing sound rang out, and Yara King froze, covering her aching cheek in disbelief.

Could the usually soft and innocent Cherish Turner actually hit her?!

“Cherish Turner, how dare you hit me?” Yara King turned her head and looked at Cherish angrily.

“I said, apologize!”

Cherish insisted.

At once, Yara was furious. She was a young lady from a wealthy family, and couldn’t tolerate being bullied by such a poor girl. As she prepared to grab Cherish’s hair, her outstretched hand was seized by a strong, broad palm!

“What the hell, let go of me! Today, I must teach this stinky girl a lesson…”

But the grip on her hand did not loosen.

Yara, angered, turned her head to see William Griffith!

“President Griffith?”

The people around them had already respectfully stepped aside, but couldn’t help gossipping about the scene.

William gave Yara a cold glance, tightened his grip on her hand involuntarily, and she almost cried from the pain.

Just as she was about to plead for mercy, William let her go, not even bothering to spare her a glance.

His eyes filled with affection, he turned to Cherish.

Seeing her puffed-up appearance, he said nothing and simply held her hand.

“I’ve been waiting for you to finish your meal. It’s been quite a while, so I came up to see. Are you ready to leave?”

Everyone around them gaped in astonishment. What was the relationship between Mr. Griffith and Cherish? It was so intriguing!

Cherish took a final cold glance at Yara, then said nothing further. She realized that there was no point in arguing with such a rotten person, and it wasn’t worth getting angry over.

“Let’s go.” Cherish tried to break free from William’s grasp, but he wouldn’t let go.

“William Griffith—”

“What do you plan to eat today? Where should we go?” William completely ignored her attempts to break free and gripped her hand even tighter!

Lewis watched his dad lead Auntie Cherish away and couldn’t help but feel a sense of relief. He quickly followed them, naturally taking Cherish’s hand. To be honest, being with Auntie Cherish felt really good!

Finally, the farce was over, and everyone dispersed, leaving Yara King standing there alone, glaring resentfully at Cherish’s retreating figure.

Perhaps because of this incident, Cherish remained silent in the car, the atmosphere oppressively quiet.

As she thought about Yara’s words, Cherish felt a certain mood inside.

Indeed, she and William shouldn’t be like this. There should be no bond between them, and strictly speaking, they were strangers. It was too reckless to be in such a relationship with a stranger.

“William Griffith, I…”

“Like I said, you’re treating me to a meal today. Where should we eat?”

“I have something to say to you.”

“Talk after the meal.”

“But I want to say it now.” She didn’t like it when people talked about her like that, and didn’t want to be trapped in such a misunderstanding.

William glanced at her indifferently, then stopped the car on the side of the road.

Seeing him stop the car, Cherish finally gathered her courage.

“William Griffith, we shouldn’t be so entangled with each other. If this is about the inflatable doll incident, I apologize. It was my fault for not checking carefully. But please, do me a favor and don’t toy with me anymore. I’m just an ordinary girl, and I can’t afford to play this kind of game.”

Upon hearing this, William couldn’t help but tighten his grip on the steering wheel. With a sideways glance, he said, “So you think I’m just playing an amusing game, or even toying with you?”
